SHINee Literature.

Learning Log 2

From the superstitious lessons, I learnt that different people are obsessed with different belief. For example, God Bless You. During the sixth century, it was customary to congratulate people who sneezed because they were expelling evil from their bodies. Later, when a great plague took hold of Europe, and people began sneezing violently, the Pope passed a law. Since sneezing meant that the person was going to die of plague, people were required to bless the sneezer. However, these belief are actually not facts, they are old-wife tales that have been pass down from one generation to other. I do not believe in superstitious, however better to be safe than sorry, but I don't let them run my life either.

Here is a cinquain on superstitious:

Superstitious

Belief, Luck

Trusting, Lying, Predicting

Foresee the future events

Suspicious

From the Macbeth lessons, I learnt more about the play and know the greed is the root of all evil. We draw 3 witches which represent unlucky. We also did a short play and really enjoy it a lot! We all had tons of funny looking how different groups do act in the first scene of the play. I definitely enjoy how Mrs Woo imitated the 3 witches! I believe everyone had a whale of a time!

I really look forward for more plays in literature! It is indeed very fun and enjoyable. I hope that this will continue for the whole year and hope that there are group works so that we can bond more with our friends. There are be more laughter in the class now are everyone is engage in the lessons. ^^

Learning Log 1

From the past few lessons, I have learnt that cinquain is a type of poem that is very unique and special. It has a few rules and guidelines to follow, for example:

SHINee (Title)

Funny, Amazing (Two words to describe)

Smiling, Laughing, Dancing (Three action word)

Dreaming about them forever (Four word phrase)

Awesome. (Describe the title)

Being able to learn cinquain is very useful, it enable us to write poems in a breeze. We can use this method in our daily life. For example, we can use it to write poems about saving the environment. It is easy to remember and understand. I also gain more knowledge for literature.

The lessons were fun and interesting. Being able to do group work allow us to bond more with each other and when we finish the cinquain poem, we felt a sense of achievement. I managed to write a cinquain poem about myself and it really reflects me a lot.

I think that the lessons were really awesome. However, I hope that we can watch some videos and have more examples of the topic. I really hope that there will be more group works as it really enable us to know and understand each other better. I also hope that there will be more laughter in the class to make the lessons more engaging.

That’s what I got to say for now. xD
